    La motivación desde enfoques diversos ha tenido aplicación en el ámbito laboral y escolar. Las metas son la representación cognitiva de aquello que se quiere alcanzar. En este estudio exploratorio se compararon las atribuciones efectuadas en metas y metas laborales, según la teoría motivacional de la atribución. La muestra no probabilística fue de 127 hombres y mujeres de Veracruz y Distrito Federal, entre 20 y 70 años, a quienes se aplicó un cuestionario con seis preguntas abiertas. Los datos se analizaron con estadística descriptiva. Los resultados coincidieron con la literatura, se atribuyó perseverancia al actor, realismo y logros a las metas. También se consideraron la participación del ambiente, recursos económicos y personas. Exceptuando el ambiente, hubo parecido en las atribuciones de las metas y metas laborales.AbstractMotivation has several applications in educational, and in labor sceneries.
